[0024] Figure 1 An exemplary embodiment shows the structure of a rotating device for a wearable device provided by the present invention, which may include a main unit 100 and a main unit support assembly 200.

[0025] The main unit support assembly 200 includes a support 201 and a wearable structure 202. The wearable structure 202 is used to fix the wearable device to the user's limbs, and the two ends of the wearable structure 202 are fixed to the two ends of the support 201. The back of the main unit 100 is provided with a rotating shaft hole 101, and the side of the support 201 that contacts the back of the main unit 100 is provided with a rotating shaft 203. The rotating shaft 203 is adapted to the rotating shaft hole 101 to realize the rotation of the main unit 100 relative to the support 201 around the rotating shaft 203. A limiting spring 204 is provided at the rotating shaft 203 of the support 201, and a limiting groove 102 adapted to the limiting spring 204 is provided at the rotating shaft hole 101 of the main unit 100 to fix the rotation angle of the main unit 100.

[0026] A magnet 205 is provided at one end of the bracket 201 away from the rotation axis 203. The magnet 205 is used to trigger the Hall switch of the host 100 when the host 100 rotates away from its original position, so as to activate the rear camera 103 of the host 100.

[0027] like Figure 2 The diagram shows the rotating state of the main unit 100. The main unit 100 and the bracket 201 are fixed together by a shaft and a retaining spring. The main unit 100 can rotate 360°. It is fixed in its original position and 180° position by a spring clip. When the main unit 100 rotates out of its original position, the rear camera can be triggered by a Hall switch. The front of the main unit 100 is equipped with a front camera 104.

[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, a retaining ring 2031 is provided at the top of the rotating shaft 203; a retaining ring groove is provided in the rotating shaft hole 101. Figure 1(Not shown in the image), the retaining ring 2031 is adapted to the retaining ring groove to prevent the rotating shaft 203 from coming out of the rotating shaft hole 101. A waterproof ring 2032 is provided between the retaining ring 2031 of the rotating shaft 203 and the surface of the bracket 201. There can be two waterproof rings 2032.

[0030] When the main unit 100 rotates, it is fixed at 180° by means of the limiting spring 204 and the limiting groove 102 on the main unit 100. The specific structure can be as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the middle of the limiting spring 204 is a raised spring. When the raised spring rotates to the limiting groove 102, it can enter the limiting groove 102, thus limiting the further rotation of the host 100.

[0031] Based on the above embodiments, the wearable device rotation device provided in this utility model embodiment includes: a main unit 100 and a main unit 100 support 201 assembly. The main unit 100 support 201 assembly includes a support 201 and a wearable structure 202. The wearable structure 202 is used to fix the wearable device on the user's limb. The two ends of the wearable structure 202 are fixed to the two ends of the support 201. The back of the main unit 100 is provided with a rotation shaft 203 hole 101. The side of the support 201 that contacts the back of the main unit 100 is provided with a rotation shaft 203. The rotation shaft 203 is adapted to the rotation shaft 203 hole 101 to realize the main unit 100 rotating relative to the support 201 around the rotation shaft 203. The rotation shaft 203 of the support 201 is provided with a limiting spring 204. The rotation shaft 203 hole 101 of the main unit 100 is provided with a limiting groove 102 adapted to the limiting spring 204 to fix the rotation angle of the main unit 100. By setting a coupling rotating device on the main unit 100 and the main unit 100 bracket 201 assembly, the main unit 100 can be rotated via the rotating shaft 203, enabling the wearable device to take photos while rotating, thus expanding the applicable scenarios of the wearable device and improving the user experience.
